Once Upon a Mattress the Musical - Very Soft Shoes Lyrics


JESTER:
So indulge me
If I pause to raise my chalice
To a quaint
And charming dance he used to do,
In the days when my dear father played
The palace back in 1392.
My dad was debonair
And quite as light as air in his very soft shoes.
How he could dip
And glide and skip and slide.
In his very soft shoes.
I used to stand and watch him every day,
He was always smooth and cool.

I used to love to hear the people say,
"He's a regular dancing fool!"
He barely touched the ground,
And never made a sound,
But I've noticed in all his reviews,
That when he took his bow to the crowd
And the crown the crowd went crazy
And the house came down!
When daddy wore his very soft shoes.

ANNOUNCER:
Ladies and gentleman,
The King of the Dancing Jesters!

JESTER & ENSEMBLE:
And when he took his bow
To the crowd and the crown,
The crowd went crazy
And the house came down!

JESTER:
When daddy?

ENSEMBLE:
Daddy?

JESTER:
Wore his?

ENSEMBLE:
Wore his?

JESTER:
Very?

ENSEMBLE:
Very?

JESTER:
Soft

ENSEMBLE:
Shhhhhhh?.

JESTER:
Shoes!
